Jessie- YOU ARE AWESOME! I have a life goal of doing a half marathon. I've done a 5k and I'm so happy with meeting that goal that I've put a 10k on hold. I guess it's gonna take awhile to do the half marathon.

Anywho... thanks for all those nice things you said about me on my blog. I have a fabric addiction, so I'm constantly coming up with ways to use all the pretty patterns I buy.
